Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Season the filet mignon with salt and pepper on both sides, and heat a skillet over high heat. Add the butter and let it melt, then add the filet mignon and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove the filet mignon from the skillet and set it aside to rest.
2
Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic to the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant, then add the red wine to the skillet. Bring the wine to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, until it has reduced by half.
3
Add the fresh thyme and rosemary to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
4
Slice the filet mignon against the grain and serve with the red wine reduction sauce spooned over the top. Garnish with additional thyme and rosemary if desired.
